Software Feature Releases

The following are new software release items.

New Integration With Tinypass Paywall

This release introduces Ooyala integration’s with the Tinypass paywall. Tinypass is
an e-commerce platform that allows content creators and media owners to monetize
their digital content quickly, powerfully, and effectively. The Tinypass paywall is
a turnkey solution with a simple workflow that provides a frictionless checkout
experience and is easy to set up.

Although customers can continue to use the current paywall in
Backlot, Ooyala encourages the use of Tinypass, which provides
significantly more payment methods, a streamlined sales process, more monetization
options, and support for both Flash and HTML5. Integration requires a Tinypass
account, which is easy to set up and integrate with your new or existing Ooyala
account. Tinypass offers pay-per view and bundled subscription options.

When integrated with Ooyala, the Tinypass paywall provides Ooyala customers with an HTML5- and Adobe Flash-capable paywall that works in-browser and enhances multi-device support by allowing for easy viewing in desktop and mobile environments. The Tinypass paywall supports multiple payment methods: PayPal, major credit cards (American Express, Visa, MasterCard, Discover), Amazon Payments, bitcoin, and Dwolla. Tinypass also offers user tracking, user analytics, and the Tinypass REST API that allows customers to expand options for contact access, pricing, and payment. For more information, see the Tinypass integration documentation.
